User’s Guide11. Introduction1.1 Bluetooth TechnologyThe term “Bluetooth” refers to a worldwide standard for thewireless exchange of data between two devices. In order to ex-change data, two Bluetooth devices must establish a connection.Before a connection is established, one device must request a con-nection with another. The second device accepts (or rejects) theconnection.The originator of the request is known as the client. Thedevice that accepts (or rejects) the request is known as the server.Many Bluetooth devices can act as both client and server.A client Bluetooth device runs a software program that re-quests a connection to another device as part of its normal operation.For example, the program may request a connection to a remotecomputer, a printer, or a modem. Becoming a Bluetooth clientnormally requires an action by the device operator, such as anattempt to browse a remote computer, print a file, or dial out on amodem.Every Bluetooth device that provides a service must be pre-pared to respond to a connection request. Bluetooth software isalways running in the background on the server, ready to respond toconnection requests.1.2 MSI™ Bluetooth USB DongleMSI™ Bluetooth USB Dongle provides wireless technologythat revolutionizes personal connectivity.

User’s Guide45* NotificationsOverviewThere are three types of notification:Authentication request, also called a PIN code re-quest—this notification appears automatically in aballoon over the Windows system tray if a PersonalIdentification Code is required before a connectioncan proceed. An audio file can also be associated withthe notification.Authorization request, also called a connection re-quest—this type of notification can be visual, audio,or both. It notifies you of attempts to access aBluetooth service on this computer; the connectionwill not proceed until you click the balloon that ap-pears over the Windows system tray. If the notifica-tion balloon is ignored, the connection request willtime out and fail.Notification only—this type of notification does noteffect access in any way; it is solely for informationpurposes to let you know that a connection has beenestablished.ExampleBoth Authentication and Authorization request notificationsare controlled by whether Secure Connection is enabled foran individual service.An example of how notifications might work when a remotedevice attempts to access a service on this computer, if allnotifications are enabled:1. Authentication: a balloon notification (audio optional)appears to prompt for a PIN code. If the PIN code

46BToes Bluetooth USB Dongledoes not match the code entered on the remote device,the connection will not be allowed. Once the remotedevice has been authenticated this notification willnot appear again, unless the paired relationship is bro-ken and the devices must repair.2. Authorization: a balloon notification appears and/or asound file provides audio notification that a remotedevice is attempting to access a Bluetooth service onthis computer. Click the balloon to proceed. A dialogbox appears that offers the option of letting the con-nection proceed this time only or to always allow thisparticular remote device to use the service it is at-tempting to access.3. Once a connection has been authorized, an additionalvisual and/or audio notification may appear (ifenabled). This notification is for information only toinform the operator that a connection has beenestablished.After two devices are paired (step 1, above), the authentica-tion notification will no longer appear when a connection isattempted.If “Always allow…” is enabled during the authorization pro-cess (step 2, above), the authorization notification will notappear on future connection attempts.Connection notification (step 3, above) only happens if ithas been enabled on the Notifications tab of the individualservice being accessed.Service Access Notification“Notifications” lets you associate a sound (Windows *.wavfile) and/or a visual indication with access attempts by re-
